  • (Similar to) tiling window managers typically having 6-10 workspaces

    I would like to be able to split Copy & Paste from 2 Actions into 20 Actions.

    I’m not sure exactly what key binding yet but something like Ctrl+C+1 to copy to Box 1 and Ctrl + V +1 to Paste from Box 1, rinse and repeat for numbers 2 through 10.

    Use case example, I want to login to a website but my login is in an email

    Ctrl+C+1 To copy to URL to clipboard box 1

    Ctrl+C+2 To copy the username

    Ctrl+C+3 To copy the password

    Open the browser

    Ctrl+V+1 Paste URL in location bar

    Ctrl+V+2 Paste username

    Ctrl+V+3 Paste password

    This allows me to complete the task without switching back and forth between windows 3 times. I still press copy and paste 6 times but don’t need to switch windows, and I still have 7 clipboard boxes left to copy & paste other important things in case I want to use the login again then I can simply Paste saving me finding the login or whatever else and copying it again to memory.














  • Hyper Text Markup Language

    A. Yes it’s a language.

    B. People who write HTML have been called Programmers for decades.

    C. Are you writing in a kind of pseudo code that the computer is going to transform into another form? Yes.

    I think the problem here isn’t that HTML isn’t a programming language. The problem is that we don’t further classify programming languages.

    There should be Platform Languages and Client languages.

    HTML is most definitely a Client Language.




  • Allowing Google to Gatekeep and snoop on anything is a no no.

    We don’t need all the data and power localized in the hands of 1-5 big tech companies and to “trust them” to not do anything self interested especially when they are publicly traded on wallstreet.

    This kind of is in the realm of Signal requiring a"phone number" – like fuck off don’t make us resurrect XMPP*. We took for granted that we weren’t being harvested day and night against a IMEI
